WANTS THE OLD HOME NEWS.

HUII Hm Warm spot in His Heart for Jasper County. The Democrat* is in receipt of a letter from> Herbert G. See, proprietor of the Golden Rule Cash Store «t Bovlll, Idaho, in which he encloses check for $2, and asks to have The Democrat sent to him. He says: “It has been fifteen years since I left old Nubbin Ridge, and I suppose the frogs have left the marshes, giving way to dredge ditches and cornfields, and the sand ridges are changed from huckleberries and sand burs to more profitable crops. Do not think me rubbing it in on Barkley or Union townships, as I have a deep down honest-to-goodness gratitude for that section, for it afforded me an abundance of good sorghum and cornbread for the many happy years I dwelt there. “You know Democratic papers aire as scarce in my part of Idaho* as orange trees in Alf Donnelly’s onion field. Of course, we real Democrats don’t use one big Democrat (?) paper stewed up at San Francisco. I guess you people could get it at your nearest big village, Chicago. • "May I ask through your columns it that good old friend &nd Democrat, Walter Harrington, Is still with you? I must close as I get homesick as I 'recall so many friends of by-gone days. Accept my sincere wishes for your continued success.” Mr. See *is a son of Alfred See. a former resident of Jasper county, and was 21 years of age when he and his parents left here. The latter are also living at Bovlll, but are getting quite old. The Walter Harrington he asks about Is now the trustee of Union township.
